Globe Aware Angels

In addition to its fantastic volunteers, Globe Aware would not exist without the generous involvement of people and organizations such as those listed below. We appreciate your efforts and your contributions to a better world.

We'd like to give a special thank you to Fannie Mae's Dollars for Doers grants, with help from Will Portugal in making it happen. These funds will be used toward the making of a special documentary on Peruvian Sign Language that will be made and used here in the United States. Blythe & Tom met during a Globe Aware Cusco program and now the happy couple are expecting!

Michael DuShields met a local resident, Reyna, in Costa Rica and are now happily married!

And we hear countless stories of the volunteer groups that came together as individuals and now stay in touch with email newsletters between them. Share with us your stories.

July 2005: In honor of Sergio's birthday, in lieu of gifts for himself, Sergio requested help for the kids he was going to help in Peru. His loved ones, friends and family raised over $1600 for donations for the needy children Globe Aware helps in Cusco, Peru. BRAVO and THANKS!

Thanks to ExxonMobil Community Summer Jobs Program for sponsoring our intern Shanon in creating the documentary video on Peruvian Sign Language.

Flat Stanley 's not self conscious of being two dimensional. He may be a simple, flat man, but he's got the heart and soul of the kids who made him from a school in Houston, Texas. Flat Stan has been traveling the globe, and on his more recent travels, joined a Globe Aware expedition where, among other things, he helped construct wheelchairs for some needy kids in Cusco, Peru.
